The Dhaka University students yesterday gave an ultimatum to the authorities to ensure safe roads on the campus and meet their other demands by December 10.
They threatened to go for a tougher movement if the authorities fail to meet their demands.

Staging a daylong demonstration, several hundred students demanded justice for Rubina Akhter, killed under the wheels of a sedan driven by Azhar Jafar Shah, a former assistant professor of the International Relations department of DU.
They pressed home an eleven-point demand and submitted a memorandum to the University's vice-chancellor in this regard.
Students said the VC accepted their memorandum and assured them of meeting their demands.
The 11-point demand includes restrictions on vehicular movement, reduction of sound pollution and installation of CCTV cameras on the campus.
After submitting the memorandum, students marched to different points on the campus. They also barred heavy vehicles and outsiders from entering the campus.
Protesters said although it was not their duty they did it as the university authorities failed to control the movement of heavy vehicles.
Al Meheraj Shahriar Mithun, a protester, was found requesting the outsiders, using a loudspeaker, not to access the campus while other protestors restricted heavy vehicles.
DU Proctor Prof AKM Golam Rabbani said they asked police to bar heavy vehicles from entering the campus. However, heavy vehicles were seen plying on the roads inside the campus.
Besides, left-leaning student organisations also held a protest rally in the afternoon expressing solidarity with the student demands.
With the woman lodged between the front and rear axles, Jafar Shah drove for about a kilometre, ignoring the screams of shocked onlookers, before people in Nilkhet area stopped him.
Jakir Hossain, the victim's brother, filed a case against Jafar with Shahbagh Police Station on Friday night.
Later, a Dhaka court, on Saturday, directed police to place the investigation report into the case before it on January 9.
